Note 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
VitaSpring Biomedical Co., Ltd (formerly Shemn Corp.) (“the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 6, 2016. The Company aims to build a cell medical industry, invest in research and development of stem cell applications in regenerative medicine, establish advanced medical research centers and high standard cell production centers, and provide “GTP” standard stem cell preparations for the development of cellular drugs. Through the development of cell medicine, it will become a leading international business group in the fields of regenerative medicine applied to the innovative fields of medicine, preventive health care, beauty, and anti-aging. The “GTP Cell Center” is basis for its business, which is cross-domain in biotechnology medical treatment, medicine and medical materials, and focuses on the development of cell medical treatment.
Note 2 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has retained earnings of $810,964 and a negative cash flow from operations amounting to $83,162 for the nine months ended October 31, 2022. The Company had $1,490,000 in revenues for the nine months ended October 31, 2022. There is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern due to the limited operating history of the business. As such, no assurance that the Company will continue to be profitable. Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses. The Company intends to position itself so that it will be able to raise additional funds through the capital markets. In light of management’s efforts, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern.
Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company’s year-end is January 31.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of nine months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $24,050 of cash and cash equivalents as of October 31, 2022.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts represents an estimate by the Company's management of specific accounts deemed uncollectible. The estimate takes into account prior bad debt experience and customer receivables outstanding for 90 days or more. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 as of October 31, 2022.
Prepaid Expenses and Deposits
Prepaid Expenses are recorded at cost less amortized value. The Company had $5,559 and $17,614 in prepaid expenses and deposits respectively as of October 31, 2022.
7
Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is principally determined using the first-in, first out (FIFO) method. The Company had $0 in finished goods inventory as of October 31, 2022. The Company had $0 prepaid inventory as of October 31, 2022.
Depreciation, Amortization, and Capitalization
The Company records depreciation and amortization when appropriate using straight-line balance method over the estimated useful life of the assets. The Company estimates that the useful life of necessary equipment is 5 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals, and replacements that increase the property's useful life are capitalized. Property sold or retired, together with the related accumulated depreciation is removed from the appropriated accounts and the resultant gain or loss is included in net income.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities
Accounts payable discloses a liability to a creditor, carried on open account, usually for purchases of goods and services. Accrued liabilities represent unpaid goods and services. The Company had $0 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of October 31, 2022.
Credit Card Liability
Credit card liability represents amounts owed to credit card issuers for money borrowed to pay merchants for goods and services based on the cardholder’s promise to pay the card issuer borrowed amounts plus other agreed upon charges. The Company had $0 in credit card liability as of October 31, 2022.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.
These tiers include:
Level 1: | defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; |
Level 2: |
defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; |
Level 3: |
defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. |
The carrying value of cash and the Company’s loan from shareholder approximates its fair value due to their short-term maturity.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of ASC 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognizes revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps: Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Specifically, Section 606-10-50 requires an entity to provide information about: a. Revenue recognized from contracts with customers, including the disaggregation of revenue into appropriate categories; b. Contract balances, including the opening and closing balances of receivables, contract assets, and contract liabilities; c. Performance obligations, including when the entity typically satisfies its performance obligations and the transaction price that is allocated to the remaining performance obligations in a contract; d. Significant judgments, and changes in judgments, made in applying the requirements to those contracts. For the nine months ended October 31, 2022, the Company generated $1,490,000 in revenue.
The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the year.
Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As of October 31, 2022, there were no potentially dilutive debt or equity instruments issued or outstanding.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as all changes in stockholders’ equity, exclusive of transactions with owners, such as capital investments. Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss), changes in certain assets and liabilities that are reported directly in equity such as translation adjustments on investments in foreign subsidiaries and unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities. As of October 31, 2022, there were no differences between our comprehensive income (loss) and net income (loss).
The Company measures all stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and non-employees based on the fair value on the date of grant in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Compensation expense of those awards is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. Generally, the Company issues awards with either service-only vesting conditions and records the expense using the straight-line method or service and performance vesting conditions and records the expense when achievement of the performance condition becomes probable using the graded-vesting method. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.
The fair value of stock-based grant awards is estimated using the fair value of the Company’s most recent historical transaction with third parties. The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in its statements of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified or in which the award recipient’s service payments are classified.
9
Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions may occur in foreign currencies and management has adopted ASC Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Average monthly rates are used to translate revenues and expenses. Gains (losses) arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the statement of operations.
Leases
The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities on our balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s balance sheets.
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use the Company’s incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Operating lease expense for fixed lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and may include certain index-based changes in rent and other non-fixed payments for services provided by the lessor. The Company’s leases do not contain any material residual guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Lease arrangements with lease and non-lease components are generally accounted for separately. For certain equipment leases, such as vehicles, the Company will account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, the Company will apply a portfolio approach to effectively account for the operating lease ROU assets and liabilities.
Risk Factors
The following risks could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations. These risk factors do not identify all risks that we face; our operations could also be affected by factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations. Due to risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, our past financial results may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future years.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected significant portions of our business and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The Company is subject to numerous pandemic-related risks, including those described below. The degree to which COVID-19 impacts the results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the virus or treat its impact, other actions taken by governments, businesses, and individuals in response to the virus and resulting economic disruption, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. We are similarly unable to predict the extent of the impact of the pandemic on our customers, suppliers, vendors, and other partners, and their financial conditions, but a material effect on these parties could also materially adversely affect us.
10
Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Risk Factors (Continued)
The pandemic has resulted in authorities imposing, and businesses and individuals implementing, numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place/stay-at-home and social distancing orders, and shutdowns. These measures have impacted and may further impact our workforce and operations, the operations of our customers, and those of our respective vendors, suppliers, and partners.
There is considerable uncertainty regarding the business impacts from such measures and potential future measures. Shelter-in-place orders and other measures, including work-from-home and social distancing policies implemented to protect employees.
The pandemic has caused the Company to modify its business practices, including with respect to employee travel; employee work locations; cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events, and conferences; and social distancing measures.
The Company may take further actions as required by government authorities or others, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers, vendors, and partners. Work-from-home and other measures introduce additional operational risks, including cybersecurity risks, and have affected the way we conduct our product development, validation, and qualification, customer support, and other activities, which could have an adverse effect on our operations. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus, and illness and workforce disruptions could lead to unavailability of key personnel and harm our ability to perform critical functions.
Note 4 – ADVANCES FROM RELATED PARTY
For the nine months ended October 31, 2022, one of the Company's shareholders and officers, a related party, had outstanding advances to the Company. Advances are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand and amounted to $215,959 as of October 31, 2022.

The Company’s stock-based compensation programs are long-term retention programs that are intended to attract, retain, and provide incentives for employees, officers, and directors, and to align stockholder and employee interests.
Under the 2020 Stock Plan, the Company grants Incentive Stock Options (“ISO”), Non statutory Stock Options (“NSO”), Restricted Stock (“RS”) and Restricted Stock Units (“RSU). ISO and NSO are granted under service conditions. RS and RSU are granted under vesting criteria set by the Administrator and could be based upon the achievement of Company-wide, business unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued employment or service), or any other basis determined by the Administrator at their discretion. Stock options granted to employees generally vest over a four-year period, although certain grants may vest over a longer or shorter period. Stock options granted to non-employees generally vest over a one-year period.
Valuation of Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The fair value of the awards are fixed at grant date and amortized over the longer of the remaining performance or service period. The fair value of stock-based grant awards is estimated using the fair value of the Company’s most recent historical transaction with third parties.

Note 8 – SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
For the nine months ended October 31, 2022, the Company incurred $582,603 in selling, general and administrative expenses. See financial statements – supplementary information Schedule I for details.
Note 9 – INCOME TAXES
There are inherent uncertainties related to the interpretation of tax regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Company transacts business. The judgments and estimates made at a point in time may change based on the outcome of tax audits, as well as changes to, or further interpretations of, regulations. The Company adjusts its income tax expense in the period in which these events occur. If such changes take place, there is a risk that the tax rate may increase or decrease in any period.
14
Note 9 – INCOME TAXES (Continued)
The FASB guidance contained in ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, addresses the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a threshold of “more likely than not” for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
The Company adopted this guidance and is now required to recognize the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being recognized. Additionally, previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold should be derecognized in the first financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. Changes in recognition or measurement will be reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.
The Company’s income tax filings are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. The Company’s open audit periods are three years for federal and four years for California. In evaluating the Company’s tax provisions and accruals, future taxable income, and the reversal of temporary differences, interpretations, and tax planning strategies are considered. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income taxes under the guidelines of the ASC Topic 740 for uncertainty in income taxes and believes their estimates are appropriate based on current facts and circumstances.

Note 10 – CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Company had one customer that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2022. The one customer represented $1,490,000 and 100% in aggregate of total sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2022.
The Company had one vendor that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total purchases for the nine months ended October 31, 2022. The one vendor represented 100% of the Company’s total purchases for the nine months ended October 31, 2022. If the Company lost this one vendor, this could have a negative impact upon the financial well-being of the Company.
Note 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Overview
VitaSpring Biomedical Co. Ltd., is a leader in placenta stem cells, leveraging its novel placenta mesenchymal stem cells and exosomes to develop array of cell related products for patients with autoimmune disease. We aim to build a cell medical industry, invest in research and development of stem cell applications in regenerative medicine, establish advanced medical research centers and high standard cell production centers, and provide “GTP” standard stem cell preparations for the development of cellular drugs.
Our GTP standard stem cell production center is in Taipei, Taiwan for mass production of our MSC(mesenchymal stem cell), exesome and cytopharmaceuticals. We also cooperate with affiliated companies to support the mass production and commercialization of X.MSC-related medical projects. Some X.MSC-based projects are researches and trials of Investment New Drugs and part of them are related to X.exosome, the critical material in the related skincare products.
We have also entered into research collaborations with leading academic institutions such as National Taiwan University College of Medicine and ZheJiang University School of Medicine (China) pursuant to which we acquired rights to novel and proprietary technologies and programs. VitaSpring management also expect X.msc-related medical projects to implement in hospitals from a small scale in the future five years.
Our research facilities in Taipei, Taiwan contain our translational and pre-clinical sciences, analytical development and process science functions. These facilities support our product pipeline, process development and leverage our allogeneic cell therapy platform to drive innovation.
Recent Developments
In August 2022, VitaSpring Biomedical Co. Ltd. announced that it would temporarily suspend shipments of products and accepting purchase orders from distributors, national brokers, and reginal agents until end of the quarter. We also decided to review our marketing strategies for all stem cell product in Asia region.
Due to restricted Covid quarantine policies in Greater China and Taiwan, our management team have been actively communicating with distributors, national brokers, and reginal agents, and clinical clients regarding the challenges of the market and concluded to temporally suspend shipments and marketing due to the followings:
• protecting our rights in our intellectual property portfolio, including by obtaining and maintaining patent and trade secret protection and regulatory exclusivity for our product candidates;
• qualifying our and our CDMOs’ manufacturing facilities for clinical and commercial manufacturing purposes;
• acceptance of our products, if approved by applicable regulatory authorities, by patients and the medical community;
• experiencing delayed on receipt of regulatory approvals from applicable authorities, including required authorizations to use and marketing authorizations;
We, however expect a significant increase in demand of our MSC and Exesome products in next quarter due to mass Covid infections when China official eases quarantine during the post-pandemic period in Asia. We also continue to evaluate opportunities to deploy different marketing strategies to different markets with sales channels, reginal brokers, and agents to enhance our products and profit margins.
16
COVID-19 Business Update
We continue to closely monitor the impact of the ongoing and evolving COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations and have taken steps designed to ensure the health and safety of our employees, staff, clinical site staff and patients and to maintain business continuity. We have transitioned a portion of our workforce to a remote, work-from-home model, while maintaining essential in-person laboratory functions in order to advance key research, development and manufacturing priorities. We implemented safety protocols and procedures to support our onsite workforce.
In addition to implementing measures designed to protect the health and safety of our workforce, our clinical study and operational teams are working closely with clinical sites to support the safety of site staff and patients as well as preserve data integrity and access to treatment as appropriate.
To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has not materially impacted our or our partners’ clinical, research and development, regulatory and manufacturing operations or timelines. However, at the onset of the pandemic, we experienced, and depending on the evolving impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we may again experience, some transient delays in clinical study operations, as a result COVID-19.
The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business and operations is subject to future developments which are uncertain and difficult to predict. We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations and will adjust our activities as appropriate.
For additional information about risks and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic that may impact our business, financial condition and operations, see the section titled “Risk Factors” under Part II, Item 1A in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Results of Operations for the Nine months ended October 31, 2022 Compared to the Nine months ended October 31, 2021
Revenue and cost of goods sold
For the nine months ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 the Company generated total revenue of $1,490,000 and $2,124,200, respectively, from sales of products to customers. Revenues for quarter ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 were $nil and $200,000. The decline in revenues, both in the nine months and quarter ended October 31, 2022 over the similar period in 2021, was a result of the decision to temporarily suspend shipments of products and accepting purchase orders from clients and distributors as a result of the Covid issue described above.
The cost of goods sold for the nine months ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 were $922,000 and $1,523,200, respectively, which represent the cost of raw materials, direct labor, freight-in costs, and purchase allowances. The cost of goods sold for the quarter ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 were $nil and $180,000, respectively.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses for the nine months ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, remained steady at $582,603 and $601,000, respectively. Total operating expenses for the quarter ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, increased slightly period over period to $182,942 from $157,453, respectively. The operating expenses for the nine months and quarters ended October 31, 2021 were primarily Selling, general and administrative expenses, which remained constant despite our decision to suspend shipments and orders.
Net Income
The net income/(loss) for the nine months ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 declined period to period, resulting in a loss of $5,760 from income of $322,629, respectively. Net loss for the quarters ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, were consistent at losses of $138,004 and $137,453, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources and Cash Requirements
At October 31, 2022, the Company had cash of $24,050. The Company had a working capital of $1,576,155.
During the quarter ended October 31, 2022, the Company used $83,162 of cash in operating activities, compared to the generation of $241,655 of cash from operations in the nine months ended October 31, 2021. The reason for the decline was because of temporally suspend taking orders and shipments.
During the quarter ended October 31, 2022 the Company used no cash in investing activities, compared to $72,996 used in the same period in 2021.
Management believes that current trends toward lower capital investment in start-up companies pose the most significant challenge to the Company’s success over the next year and in future years. Additionally, the Company will have to meet all the financial disclosure and reporting requirements associated with being a publicly reporting company. The Company’s management will have to spend additional time on policies and procedures to make sure it is compliant with various regulatory requirements, especially that of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This additional corporate governance time required of management could limit the amount of time management has to implement is business plan and impede the speed of its operations.
17
Limited operating history; need for additional capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are in a start-up stage of operations and have generated limited revenues since inception. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not maintain any off-balance sheet arrangements, transactions, obligations or other relationships with unconsolidated entities that would be expected to have a material current or future effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.
Going Concern
The Company has a retained earnings of 810,964 but a negative cash flow from operations of $83,601 for the nine months ended October 31, 2022. The Company had $1,490,000 in revenues for the nine months ended October 31, 2022, all of which were generated in the first six months of 2022. The Company currently lost $5,760 for the period and is in the process of completing its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenue sufficient to cover operating costs over an extended period. Therefore, there is still a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses. The Company intends to position itself so that it will be able to raise additional funds through the capital markets. In light of management’s efforts, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfer of Assets Other than Inventory, which requires the recognition of the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs. ASU 2016-16 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. .
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which will amend current lease accounting to require lessees to recognize (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since and their potential effect on our financial statements. The Company's management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.
Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In future periods, the Company may become subject to certain market risks, including changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates. At the present time, the Company has no identified exposure and does not undertake any specific actions to limit exposures, if any.
Item 4 - Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's president and chief executive officer (who is the Company's principal executive officer) and the Company's chief financial officer, treasurer, and secretary (who is the Company's principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, the Company's management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and the Company's management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The ineffectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures was due to material weaknesses identified in the Company's internal control over financial reporting, described below.
18
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company's financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our management, with the participation of the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") (2013). Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. This assessment included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation.
Based on this evaluation, the Company's management concluded its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of October 31, 2022.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended October 31, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within any company have been detected.
